OKOROCHA ATTACKS NZERIBE

…You’re expired politician
Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, has described Senator Francis Arthur Nzeribe as an expired politician who cannot determine who governs the state in 2015.In a press statement b
y his Senior Special Assistant (Media), Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, Okorocha said Nzeribe had never supported any governorship candidate in Imo and could not determine who won Imo governorship in 2015.
He recalled that In 1999, Nzeribe was in the defunct APP, saying his party’s governorship candidate whom he supported, Dr. Ezekiel Izuogu, failed. Chief Achike Udenwa of PDP won. Before Udenwa, he had backed the then SDP candidate “Dr. Alex Obi for the governorship and he also failed. Chief Evan Enwerem of NRC won to become the governor of the state without Chief Nzeribe.“In 2007, he did not also play a role in Chief Ikedi Ohakim’s becoming governor. It was Chief Udenwa, who packaged and delivered on that project and indeed, Chief Nzeribe lost his bid to go back to the senate. So, Chief Nzeribe has never contributed to the victory of any governorship candidate in Imo.

“In 2011, he was in PDP and Rochas Okorocha came on the ticket of APGA to win the governorship election. Even the APGA candidate is leading the PDP candidate with more than 2,000 votes at the moment in the yet to be concluded Oguta State Constituency re-run election.
“But from all indications, his political fortunes seem not to include making or contributing to someone becoming governor. He does not have such record. And he cannot start in 2015 because the Imo electorate demonstrated in 2011 that they have become wiser and more determined to take their fate into their own hands.”
Onwuemeodo maintained that by 2015 Imo people will decide who to vote for and it does not matter who vowed to do what.
“To say the least, in 2015, Imo people, with the help of God will elect their governor. Those talking about Rochas Okorocha know why they do so. He is the man to beat if he decides to run again”
